• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IBAUTH001 - No create authorization for IBase category "&1" and authoriz. group "&2" ?

  The SAP error message IBAUTH001 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to create an instance of an IBase (Integration Base) category specified by the placeholders &1 (the IBase category) and &2 (the authorization group). This error typically occurs in the context of SAP's Industry Solution for Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) or similar modules where IBase objects are used.
  Cause
  The error is caused by a lack of authorization for the user attempting to create an IBase object. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Object: The user’s role does not include the necessary authorization object for creating IBase instances.
  Incorrect Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the correct roles that include the required authorizations.
  Authorization Group Restrictions: The authorization group specified may have restrictions that prevent the user from creating objects in that group.
  
  Solution
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
  Check the roles assigned to the user and ensure that they include the necessary authorizations for IBase creation.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  The relevant authorization object for IBase is typically I_AUTH (for IBase authorization).
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what is missing.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the necessary authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  Use transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance) to adjust roles and add the necessary authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to ensure that the user has the correct access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in, then attempt to create the IBase object again to verify that the issue is resolved.
